Overview
This essential volume has already earned its place in my workshop as a bookmarked working resource. I trust it will do likewise for any printmaker or institution seeking to expand the possibilities of printmaking, while re-engaging with a body of knowledge founded on enquiry, craftship and a commitment to sustainable printmaking practices.
Using plant-based colour for printmaking is a rich and inspiring practice that opens up a fascinating world of colour independent from a reliance on synthetic inks and pastes. From Plant to Print encourages artists, printmakers and anyone fascinated in natural colour to embark on this compelling journey into making their work more sustainable. Packed with practical advice and some 300 images, the book splits recipes into sections, depending on which substrate will be used, and introduces techniques for printmakers on both paper and fabric. It explains procedures and processes in detail, conveying the intricacies, complications and unexpected joy inherent in adopting this intriguing practice.
